U.S. economy: Strengths and possible risks

Key U.S. economic indicators show a growing economy, but there is some policy uncertainty on the horizon. Roger Aliaga-Díaz, chief economist for the Americas, and Andrew J. Patterson, senior economist, discuss growth prospects and the potential effect of changing policies, including trade. Peter Westaway, chief economist for Europe, also weighs in on what all this means for investors’ portfolios.

All investing is subject to risk, including possible loss of principal.

Investments in stocks or bonds issued by non-U.S. companies are subject to risks including country/regional risk and currency risk.
